    Evening - just did my weekly shop and it came to £104, but I bought ALL Natasha's presents in that, so I didn't think it was too bad. :)

    Can't believe she's 2 in 8 days!!! :eek: :eek:

    And yes, it was lovely of Ryan's school to ring me - they even put Ryan on the phone so I could say 'well done' to him in person! :T

    I always seem to kill it these days :rolleyes: I made mash, sausages, gravy and sweetcorn. The mash was quite smooth and creamy too and there wasnt many lumps in it either :D

    it's my new approach to weekends - in the past I'd have a calorific takeaway or pizza but now I'm just going to have healthy but yummy stuff that I love. Hopefully this way it'll become a way of life and not seem like a diet... I'm going to buy some nice posh fruit to snack on too!:D

    sounds like my OH Sammy - he'll walk in with something like 'did you mean to fridge door open?' when I'm standing about 3 feet away with something fridge related in my hand . I just smile and pointedly go 'good evening?'
